Joe vs Punk! New bitter old man trilogy. I’m getting too old for this shit CHOP. Promos included.
I’m just excited from all the possibilities!

This show was what I hoped Rampage would be like.
Hopefully we get Brody vs Rush
Could have used a wow moment bring a debut episode, but all in all I’m excited for it as a good wrestling show. A good cast of characters to work with and mix in various other workers that can hope between shows. Less of a straight brand split and more a difference in vibe an presentation.

Reading through all the comments about the theme song and trying to remember actually caring about an intro song for any wrestling show ever.
Was Moesha a wrestling show? That theme song was legit.

Fellow nerds, with the Squared Circle Reddit page down, I don’t have a quick scroll all-in-one page for wrestling news. Any recommendations on similar pages?

Holy smokes, I love that intro! No joke, I’m low key more excited somehow. Saturday wrestling! Hopefully we get some Rush on future shows to team with Andrade. All the drama surrounding everything dampened my excitement but this is a weird shot of espresso to freshen things up.
Thumbs up for me.-

I will admit it: Jarrett and Lethal stooging for Papa was good stuff.

Collision being the first AEW television property without Excalibur does not feel insignificant.
After the beating Excalibur gave Jimmy Havok they were afraid if another fight broke out and he got involved an actual star would feel the wrath of Excalibur.

Miro vs Inaction, his longest AEW feud.
The treadmill says the same about me.

Grandpa on my dad’s side was a Assistant Fire Chief in Minneapolis and Papa on my mom’s side was a goofy can’t not joke traveling paper salesman. They would make an intriguing tag team.

Yeah, look, I'm proud of each and every one of you (well, there are a few obvious exceptions; you know who you are). I also assume you all beat Serpentico at one point or another. You better have.
Love you, Dad

Four Pillars joining forces as a Four Horsemen clone is within the realm of possibility depending on how sad things get
Which one would be Arn?

Eh, I’m not a huge bidding war storyline guy but I still think it can be pulled off well without minor leaguing AEW. Play up that the other side is loaded with cash from making a deal with the Saudi government and MJF wants some of that evil money. Dress Schiavone up in a flag shirt or something while it’s happening.

Punk got Punked in minutes to Mox. Even without seeing Rocky. The guy is a selfless hero.

Lil Octopus, Brother Giraffe, and I are all at Unmapped Brewing. We are outside and enjoying a nice day. There is a dog out here with the same name as a poster here. Let’s just say when he started barking and acting up, I just heard a bunch of “Damn it, Gordi!” “Hush Gordi!” ( @Gordlow)

New Octo question:
How would you rank AEW World Championship runs?
-
See if Will Washington can trick Michael Cole or whoever to reveal that on AEW that Kingston will become champion. Let’s recreate the Foley win!

Not from his past, but a returning Kingston as AEW’s savior would be neat. Not as likely though.

Eh, I feel like we hit the same talking points on the Cody v Roman what if. (Not that it shouldn’t be discussed, go for it as I am now lol) The question of “well then what” is a tough one to answer because it depends on the competency of the booking and the ability of the performers. Would Cody as Champion after an all time great Wrestlemania moment make me want to see what happens next and could the feud with Brock involve the title? Does the implosion of the Bloodline need the title? I don’t really have the answers to that. I feel that WWE leading up to Mania was firing on all cylinders and I am fearful of recent memory WWE losing my interest when I emotionally invest in the promotion.
I’m in a camp that I didn’t like the loss, but could very much love the loss with how everything plays out. With a Cody win, I would likely have my favorite WWE style match of all time. With the Cody loss, I have the usual feeling of a grand Vikings loss (which sounds and is negative, but heartbreak is a memorable feeling).
This can all be said for Zayn and maybe even to a lesser sense Drew.
IFFFFFF, Cody or honestly anyone else can create the same level of monumental pandemonium and Roman can maintain an intriguing (with the help of the cast of characters around him) for a hottest crowd in recent memory at a Wrestlemania main event, then they paid off and will likely have created my favorite wrestling arc of all time. Anything short of that or slightly less than that is what it is, less. Granted, that doesn’t mean it can’t be enjoyable still or win me back into the fold. WWE has done a remarkable thing by setting a very high bar and I’m excited to see if they can clear it! I guess this puts me in the wait and see camp. I’m giving them until Wrestlemania or a lolGoldberg moment.
If they do not, I’ll blame mustache Vince. If they do, HHH is a genius. Will we get the Son of Dusty’s Hard Times or Cody’s Half-Chub Moments?
Stuff. Not good. Not bad. Just...stuff.

In the ER overnight for lil Octopus’s breathing. He had a cold that lead to croup that lead to something like Stridor. Poor guy is having a tough time today.
The negative thread is still down so I posted here?
